The hotel is ok, if you want to stay some nights in Downtown Cairo with a lot of restaurants around. The staff of the hotel is very kind. Especially Sama, the young lady at the reception, deserves the highest praise. She is very professional, her English is very good, she was very helpful and gave a lot of interesting advices. It shoud be mentioned, that breakfast is only served in the hotel rooms and that the hotel is located in three floors of an old building. Only the hotel floors are clean and tidy.
